Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Consuela, I'm sorry another good one's gone. Far too many of them to be losing any. My sympathies to his family and friends.
Laura, congratulations! I love the name Savannah. For a girl.
I stopped watching tv news long ago. B.org and a couple other websites are my news source. Yeah, that's right, not even Colbert, or TDS, though I do watch those sporadically. No local or national or international tv news, no newspapers. It was all making me just too crazy. Filters are our friends.

I didn't mean here; I had to turn off NPR in the car on the way to work! Ugh.
Also, Slate has possibly the most offensive article I have ever seen: [link]

Oh, yeah. I was working at home yesterday and I kept trying to listen to the radio (NPR) but had to keep turning it off. Every program had something about the Palin thing and it was making my head explode.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I'm in such a meta place with the news. Daughter of a teen mother, standing right here. Imagining my 16 year old mom in this spotlight.

The hell? I thought this was going to get ugly, but that's...that's...no words.

I thought Palin was a good pick for VP from a strategic standpoint, but I'm starting to have my doubts. I still am at a pit of a loss about why, if we wanted a woman on the ticket, he couldn't go for Kay Baily Hutchinson, or Elizabeth Dole, or Condi Rice, or maybe Jodi Rell if going for a governor.

I reckon they'd laugh in his face and turn him down.

Maybe they all did and Palin was the first to say "Okie dokie".

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
Am I an anomaly of my generation that I never watched the original 90210 and have yet to watch any Dawson's, GG, One Tree Hill, and only fragments of The OC
I'm another one of these, Barb! Actually, I've never seen the OC, either. Most of those shows were on network TV when I was going through my "only watching cable channels" phase, so I completely missed them. (It took Lost and my very late tuning into CSI Vegas to get me to watch the Big Three networks again.)
In Palin news, I think what bothers me most is the lack of vetting that obviously went on (no one in Alaska was ever contacted for background checks). If McCain can't be arsed to review a running mate's life history before meeting them once and then deciding she's his "soul mate" (ugh!), why should I vote for the man?
